This sentence seemed a bit strange for Linton to ask. At this moment, Toliman suddenly thought, could it be that Linton and Dane here are the same person? Yes, it is indeed strange for Dane to come to the venue.
, isn’t this wanted criminal wanted by the whole continent coming here to die? Why are he coming here? Now it seems that they may have reached something with Linton. In other words, Linton is asking this now because he thinks the other party can come up with something.
evidence.
The so-called evidence is definitely forged. Toliman is a little angry, but he still wants to see what the other party is doing before talking about it. Anyway, the assassination of Garsain has nothing to do with their Holy Association. This is obviously a frame-up against them.
.
However, just as Toliman was preparing to expose Dyne, Dane spread his hands and said, "There is no evidence."
"Huh?" Toliman was stunned, "What do you mean?"
"No evidence is needed. If our Black Hand Guild did this, I would admit it on the spot. There is nothing to hide. Since the establishment of the Black Hand Guild, over the past hundred years, everything our Black Hand Guild has done has never been done before.
If you don't admit it, I swear on the honor of this guild that this matter was not done by us." Dane said.
"What is this? Can't you lie?" Toliman said, pointing at Dane.
"I really can't lie about this matter." Dane said, "Our Black Hand Guild's survival to this day depends on its credibility. Now representatives from all the continent are here. If I lie here, I will destroy myself."
The way. Many of you here are clients of my Black Hand Guild. You can judge for yourself whether what I say is true."
The venue suddenly began to talk a lot. Yes, although there is no evidence to prove what Dane said, most people actually believed it. Although the Black Hand Guild is wanted by the entire continent, it is really pursued by people all over the continent.
Kill them? In fact, many of the people sitting here have given commissions. The Black Hand Guild can be said to be an underground organization that is secretly allowed to exist. Otherwise, if the entire continent was really hunting them down, they would have perished long ago.
As Dane said, credibility is too important to the Black Hand Guild. The reason why they can acquiesce in the existence of this underground organization is because they are still useful, and what guarantees their usefulness is their long-standing credibility. If they lose this
, who will entrust them again, who will acquiesce in their existence again, is indeed a way to die.
Toliman also understood this at this time. To be honest, he also believed that this matter was not done by the Mafia Guild, but he immediately said: "Whether it was done by you, what does it have to do with our association?
You said that according to your investigation, this matter was done by our Holy Association, and what about the certificate?"
"There is no substantial evidence." Dane spread his hands and said, "It's just that after our investigation, most of them pointed to your Holy Association, but you said that we haven't been able to find direct evidence."
"That……"
"But we have already investigated this assassination. The assassin is indeed a saint. In terms of suspicion, isn't your saint-level association bigger?" Dane said.
"That's nonsense." Toliman said immediately, "I can also swear on my reputation that this time it was definitely not our association. Do you think the reputation of our Holy Association is useless?"
"I do believe in Lord Toliman's reputation." Dane said with a smile, "But your oath can only represent you personally and swear on the reputation of the entire guild. I think this is impossible."
"What do you mean?" Toliman demanded.
"I can guarantee that all orders in our guild are issued by me, and I can also be responsible for everyone under my name. Can your organization guarantee this?" Dane said with a smile.
"You..." Toliman was startled, suddenly speechless. I said before that the Saint-Level Association is a very loose organization, and the Saint-Levels in the association have a very high degree of freedom. In other words, what they do, the association
He doesn't know everything, and he won't deliberately pursue it, so can Toliman represent the entire association? Obviously he can't.
Of course, the people below also understood. What Dane said was indeed correct. In fact, if it was really the idea of a certain saint, it would be normal for Toliman to not know about it at all, so his oath can only say that he did not
Get involved in this.
"So what you mean is that everyone from our association should come here to swear an oath?" Toliman said with a sneer.
"I think this is a good idea." Dane replied without any hesitation.
"you……"
"I'm talking about you two." At this time, Linton next to him suddenly spoke, "At present, it seems that it is still difficult to completely prove this matter, but I do have a feasible method."
"What can be done?" Toliman asked.
"Actually, everyone knows that in our Holy Empire of Yilan, we often encounter cases where both parties are unable to provide real evidence, so in the end there is a solution, and that is... trial by combat.
Linton said with a smile.
"What……"
"So now, I suspect that your Holy Association was involved in the assassination of my nephew, but there is no substantial evidence. I now formally propose to you a trial by combat. Do you accept it?" Linton continued.
"How is it possible..." Toliman wanted to refuse on the spot. This was really ridiculous. However, the next second, he was suddenly stunned. Yes, he suddenly understood what Linton meant. This guy and
Dane was indeed in the same group. The previous discussion for a long time was not to convict them at all, but to raise a random suspicion. As long as there was this suspicion, Linton could initiate a trial by combat.
This trial by combat is naturally very ridiculous. Not to mention that the suspects are not just them. Although it is done by the Holy Level, the Holy Level Association does not include all Holy Levels. Linton himself is not a member of the Holy Level Association. What do you think?
Is it possible that it was not done at the Saint level of the association? Furthermore, why should it be done according to the rules of your Holy Empire of Yilan? Trial by combat is not a rule common to the entire continent. Although many countries do have this rule, but the Saint level
The association is not the country.
So obviously, if they want to refuse, Toliman can come up with a hundred reasonable reasons. However, the question now is, can they refuse? Yes, no matter how ridiculous Linton's words are, Toliman cannot refuse directly.
Ah, you must know that this is the Continental Congress, and the whole continent is watching. You are a holy association, and they ask you to compete, but you refuse? Where do you put your face?
Toliman understands that this is not a conspiracy, this is a conspiracy. People use ridiculous reasons to propose trial by combat, and you know this is a trap, but you have no choice but to jump. No matter how legitimate your reason for rejection is, as long as you refuse
You are just afraid of the martial arts competition, and you cannot afford to lose face.
Of course, under normal circumstances, this kind of situation is impossible. After all, they are a holy association. Anyone who has nothing to do is to dare to fight against them. But the problem is that the opposite is Linton. This guy really dares.
Toliman now also knows clearly that no one in the association can be Linton's opponent. Not to mention that Linton has killed several saint-level achievements. Look at the giant dragon in the square at the entrance.
Being tamed by Linton and lying there like a dog, do you still know how powerful this guy is?
But the problem is that he knows how powerful he is and admitting that Linton is better than them in front of the whole continent. If he refuses now, he is admitting this to everyone, and admitting that they are cowards. It is better to let him
die.
If you say you accept it, at most you will die, but the problem is that it is not that simple. What Linton proposed was a trial by combat. If you lose the trial by combat, that is equivalent to admitting guilt. If you admit the crime, isn't it still
Let Linton knead it, let’s just say the simplest thing. Linton asked all of them to apologize to Linton. What should you do? If you apologize, it will be a big loss for everyone. If you don’t apologize, it will be a big loss if you don’t keep your promise. This is
How uncomfortable.
Toliman is really in a dilemma now. He really didn't expect that he would be forced into this situation by such a bullshit scheme. The other party just calculated that they couldn't afford to embarrass anyone, but this point directly strangled them to death.
I really can't keep up this tone.
"What's wrong?" Linton looked at Toliman's expression and couldn't help but smile, "Didn't Master Toliman hear clearly? Do you want me to repeat it?"
"I..." Toliman was so angry that he was so angry that Linton was so sarcastic that he was not a human being. However, he couldn't keep refusing to answer. Others were already talking in low voices below. He didn't
If you can fight, the result will be the same as if you refuse.
Just when Toliman was in a panic, suddenly a voice came from the seat below: "I remember that according to your country's rules, you can invite an agent to conduct a trial by combat, right?"
Everyone looked at the person who spoke, it was Dragon Lord Iglis.
"Yes." Linton nodded, "Then the holy level..."
"President Toliman." Iglis interrupted Linton directly, because he knew that what Linton wanted to ask was "Should the Holy Association ask someone else to represent it?" This was obviously to force the Holy Association to death.
Means, can you say that? So Iglis took the initiative and said, "Actually, I have some personal grudges with this Linton sword master, so can I be the agent for this trial by combat? Give it to me.
A face."
When Iglis said this, of course he gave the Holy Association a leg up. The agent he proposed on his own initiative was not the agent requested by the Holy Association. There was a big difference. And with Iglis's face, who would dare not to do so?
Yes, the Holy Association entrusted him with the task, so there was no problem.
"Then... then I'll leave it to you, sir." Toliman here had almost no choice. After thinking about it, he could only nod and breathed a sigh of relief.
